Look at Palmetto State Armory, Primary Arms, Aim Surplus and Bravo Co. Go to AR15.com and look at the build it yourself forums.

Your doing it right. Dont dwell to much on extras at first. You could plan forever. To many options. Shoot it. Learn. Then figure out what you want.

I've bought upper receivers from surplusammo.com. I've been very happy with them, most all other parts I've used came from joeboboutfitters or midwayusa.

Be carefully, it's an addiction. I build my first one a year ago and look what I've done.

You can't find a better quality lower for less money than a CMMG, it is the cat's meow, so to speak. I just finished my 2nd, AR-15 using mostly CMMG parts, with Delton uppers. Fired it for the first time this morning and fired 3 round groups off hand at 50 yards all within and inch. Moved out to 100 yards still off hand and fired a 3 shot group at 1 3/4". Not a bad rifle, with groups like that. Also a nice tight fit, so the rifle feels nice and snug.
